Contains facts on chain mail.

Quick Fact: Chain mail is illegal in the U.S.A if it is asking for money or services.

Internet chain mail is the result of some stupid kid writing up some fake story that if you send this to however many people in however many minutes you will get kissed and so forth.  This is not true, even a 4 year old should be able to see the this is just a load of bull. And i know that some people do this because they think it’s funny, but it’s really not. In the first few times you see it or someone forwards it to you its kinda funny, but after you email in-box is filled with “send this to 20 people and you will get kissed blah blah blah” it becomes more of a nuisance than a joke.

The below chain-mail is the most common sort used around the Internet. It says by posting this to however much games or however much videos will get you something mysterious.

Variant 1:

1. Hold your breath

2. count 5 seconds

3. touch your nose

Your crush will kiss you on the nearest Friday, but here’s the catch. Post this to 5 other videos

Comments: Obviously not true

Variant 2:

There was a shipment of escaped prisoners. One of which was a chainsaw wielding clown. The train crashed releasing the convict clown. He then headed to the nearest house and killed the family inside. Post this to 3 other videos or the clown will be over your bed at 3 am with his chainsaw ready to kill you.

Comments: This is a typical scare chain-mail intended to scare you into posting it

Variant 3:

Step 1: Hold your breath

Step 2: Post this to 5 other videos

LOOK AT YOUR DESKTOP AND PRESS f5 ITS SCARY BECAUSE IT WORKS!

Comments: Totally totally pointless and absurd. It makes no sense. How would posting this to other videos somehow activate a function on your computer?

My favorite:
1. Read everything

2. Chuckle at the irony of it

Hey post this to five other videos and your crush will kiss you! However if you do post it to 5 other videos your crush will turn into a hairy boar and rape you. DON’T POST IT STOP CHAIN MAIL

Comments: =D
